Commodity codes are used to identify products and services for departments as a source of business. When selecting the commodity codes that reflect the work of your company we encourage you to invest adequate time to include all the codes related to your company. Often, solicitations are sent to vendors based solely on commodity codes. Therefore, if your business is able to do a project but did not select the exact commodity codes regarding the desired service or product, your company will not receive the initial notification. San Bernardino County wants your company to be included in all the solicitations that you are eligible to bid. Therefore, we encourage you to select all that apply. San Bernardino County utilizes the National Institute of Government Purchasing (NIGP) Commodity Codes.
